The habit of the canary to noisily join
in any conversation that may be going on
in the family circle is a reason why many
refrain from keeping this cheerful little
bird as a pet. A naturalist has discovered
q way OF remedying the difficulty. He
says; 1--WE put in our canary birds cage
every day a little mirror. rs large as the
palm OF our hand, taking care that neither
sun nor light shall dazzle him. and he
will look at himself for hours together
with as much happiness as any gentle
man you ever saw. When we want him
TO stop singing we have only 70 give him

We understand. says the Reno Gazette,
that some one. perhaps the lobby has
been trying to scare the cattlemen into
the belief that there would be efforts
made to pass laws Of q nature ~unfrlendly
to their business, during the present fes-
zion Of the Legislature. The only res-
son they have for thinking 80 is a pri.
vste letter from Mr.. Mills to q friend
who asked his opinion on matters in
which all are concerned and which was
published as q matter OF interest to ell
who desire to see State affairs discussed.

THAT BLARSTED BLAIR BILL.

Mr.. MCCoRp:-Dear SRI
have been reading your paper for
some time and if nothing happens
I expect to continue to do so. /
notice that you favor the Blair bill.
If the bill is what was represented
to me as the real bill and the one l
studied was the true bill, would
rather vote for almost anything
else, for if l understood it, and |
think did, almost the whole pow
er of control was retained by con-
gress and the states made slaves to
1t in almost everything, and that is
what 1 object to. If congress
would give to each state certain
amount of money foI school pur-
poses to be used and controlled by
each state to the best of her abili-
ty, l would not object to that; but
when congress undertakes to die
tate the way the bill that l read
did, if the states we're to accept the
money they would be slaves to con-
gress. 1t would be too tedious for
me to point out all the objections l
saw in the bill I studied, but as the
bill saw might not have been a
true one.I would be much obliged to
you to send me a paper that has a
true copy of the bill or have it
printed in The CITIZEN so that l
can read it. l think that too much
power is already ceulered in con-
gress and if they have the right to
pass the Blair bill that / read they
have the power to pass almost any
thing else debating to the states
what they must do if they expect
any favors from congress and to
withhold that favor if the states
do not do just as they say.
Please write Bret Harte to send
me his novel (Snow Bound at Ea-
gles) and l will give it to some one
that is in the habit of reading nov
els and it will give you more room
in your paper to put useful knowl-
edge. Yours truly.

A Large Prize Won by a Nor
folk Club.

Learning that one-tenth of tickle;
No. 9l,960, which drew the capital
prize of $4,000 in the drawing of The
Louisiana State Lottery ION the 18th
inst, had been collected through the
Marine Bank, reporter of The Vir-
ginian determined to find out whom
tickle fortune had so favored, and
soon discovered that Capt. |. Cain, O:
the steamer "Bonito," was one of par
ty to whom the ticket belonged. Capt.
Cain was sought, but as his steamer was
in North Carolina, he could not be
seen until last night at O'Clock, when
his boat arrived, At that hour the re-
porter went to the wharf and asked for
Capt. Cain, and was directed to the
boat, where he was found leaning out
of the pilOt-honse window directing 1.-THE
landing of his cargo. Upon asking a
few questions it was learned that Capt.
Cain is one of thirty residents of our
city who for about two years have con-
tributed monthly one dollar each to a
club for the purpose of buying tickets
in The Louisiana State Lottery, and
during this period several prizes have
been won, but none over 5000, which
amount has been drawn by them three
or four times. just before the drawing
of the l1tn inst. the club bought tickets
and among them was the tenth-t ticket
numbered 81 800, and on examining the
official list of numbers drawn, the club
discovered that they were the fortunate
winners Of sl5, 900. They deposited the
ticket in the Marine Bank for collec-
ton, and on Thursday received their
money. Capt. Cain said the club would
still continue to purchase tickets
monthly as before. Congratulating the

THE RESPONSE.

Col. HIGDoN:-Deor SRI am
sorry 1 have no copy of The Blair
bill at hand to send you. You say:
IF congress would give to each
state a certain amount of money for
school purposes to be used and
controlled by each state" etc, that
you would favor it. You are ex-
actly with Bob tTaylor and l agree
with you perfectly. l would object
to any aid that brought federal con-
troll. / do not think the Blair bill
means to reserve control. You do.
1t is a mere difference of opinion
You may be right, and if l be-
lieved like you l would oppose it
strenuously.
l have telegraphed Bret Harte as
you desire. He replied that whole
families in Giles and pert of Texas
want the story continued in The
CITIZEN. He does not think we
ought to print too much "useful
knowledge for people who already
know SO much that they do not
need the Blair bill money.
Yours Unexpectedly,
LAPS. D. MCCoRD.
